Spammers Die!

Have recently had an email exchange with a Japanese guy that I met on Guam several years ago when I was living there right after college. This person has grown a bit older, married, and has kids. I asked him what he was doing for a living in my first email a couple of weeks ago and he said “marketing” and “market research”. Well, I got him on the phone yesterday evening and we had a short discussion – a discussion that was incredibly shortened when I found out what he did.
It turns out that he works for a company that does cell phone spam. Hmmm…. I thought that this was illegal? ‘So how are they doing this?’, I wondered. After a bit of research, which is going to turn into much more research, I have found that there are STILL loopholes in the law that still make this possible. One of the laws that enables this is the recently enacted Privacy Law…… more to come on this subject as more facts are revealed.
